Lil nas x v for vendetta creative summative
Storyboard Text
- After Evey speaks, V pauses the song to educate her on why she has never heard the song before.
- *Pauses song* Ah, yes there is a reason for that, As we discussed earlier they eradicated all culture. No mercy even for a great artist like Lil Nas X. Norsefire sentenced him to Montero state prison because he was Black and gay.
- OH, this song is amazing, the government radios would never play music like this.
- Well, well, Evey. The Neo fascist military music lacks any diversity. When they first heard this song they panicked and reacted with anger, their racist and homophobic brains could not handle it.
- That makes sense because I don't understand a lot of what is being said in this song. Can you explain its meaning, why norsefire banned it and why they imprisoned the artist?
- The part that drove them mad was when Lil Nas X sang “Need a boy who can cuddle with me all night Keep me warm, love me long, be my sunlight.” Him professing his love to another man enraged Norsefire an unbelievable amount, Evey as you know “They started taking people away this included the men who you know liked other men.“ (Moore/Llyod 28) Lil Nas X was one of these men. I deeply respect him Evey for not letting the fascists scare him away from composing his feelings. It is really unfortunate what happened to him.
- V resumes the song
- ♪ That afro' black boy with the gold teeth, He dark skin looking at me like he know me, I wonder if he got the G or the B, Let me find out and see, he coming over to me, yeah These days I'm way too lonely, I'm missing out, I know, These days I'm way too alone, And I'm known for giving love away but, I want Someone to love me, I need Someone who needs me, 'Cause it don't feel right when it's late at night, And it's just me in my dreams, So I want Someone to love ♪ , (LilNasXVEVO)
- *Pauses song* Yeah the government is extremely close minded Evey, There racist and homophobic policies did not put up with the lines that afro' black boy with the gold teeth, He dark skin looking at me like he know me, I wonder if he got the G or the B, Let me find out and see, he coming over to me, The poor man just wanted to write a love song .
- After Evey speaks, V pauses the song again to explain to her more about the song.
- Woah! Now I understand why Norseffire imprisoned him for this song. It really is a shame though, his music is unlike anything I have ever heard. I mean It is quite good.
- Never mind, I have said too much.
- I really like this artist and this song Evey. When I was younger I had…, well…, I had… I had an incident and Lil Nas X’s music really helped me. I think it can help you as well.
- Oh, no what was your incident!?
